THINKING OF BERNARD WILLIAMS (PHILOSOPHER) : THE MIND OF ARTISTS, ENTREPRENEURS,

THINKING OF BERNARD WILLIAMS (PHILOSOPHER) : THE MIND OF ARTISTS, ENTREPRENEURS, AND JURISTS IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF PHILOSOPHY.

You know, there is a natural conflict between judges, entrepreneurs, and artists. A judge makes no proactive statements, only prohibitionary. Artists and entrepreneurs envision possibilities, and rarely issue prohibitions.

But it is somewhat of a difference between the sculptors of stone and of clay.

A sculptor of clay creates from either skeleton or nothing, A sculptor of stone eliminates all that is not that which he desires. Working with clay is much more forgiving than working with stone. The sculptor of stone works with what exists, and the sculptor of clay works with what yet may be. The Judge works with what exists, and the artist and entrepreneur work what may be.

Together they produce the same art.

I agree with Williams that scientism is tedious for the artist, of limited use to the entrepreneur – but it is of necessity to the jurist.

Reasonableness, Reason, Justification are tools of artist and entrepreneur for the purpose of creating hypotheses – that which may yet serve man.

Science, Criticism, and Testimonialism are the tools of the jurist for the purpose of determining truth – that which exists independently of our opinions.

The division of perception, cognition, knowledge, advocacy, negotiation, and labor, exists everywhere.

For every OBVERSE (hypothesis) there must exist a REVERSE (criticism).

Creator and Jurist are necessary for a two dimensional imaginary plane to be represented as a three dimensional object in reality.

(You see, I am perfectly capable of argument by informative analogy. But that is only because I know the truth, and wish to inform. It is not because I want to inform without first knowing the truth.)

Theory:obverse and limits:reverse.
